One week of climbing for beginners and experts in Sicily, or better: at San Vito lo Capo. A paradise in summer for beach lovers, it becomes a rock climbing paradise at only some steps from the sea fom autumn to spring. The mild climate allows climbers to climb from September to May (!). And who wants can even do some excursions around the corner in a nature reserve (the most ancient of Sicily) or on Monte Cofano, hiking above the sea.
One day at the white beach and another day discovering the rich history of this island are highly recommended.
During this journey we will:
- improve our techniques and climbing level
- ascent multipitch routes
- (for who has already done alpine climbing or wants to try it) alpine routes
Here some places where we will climb:
The "scogliera di Salinella" fantastic exposure towards south, routes from 4° to 7°, not being very known to other cliembers the wall are still PERFECT....
Monte Monaco, perfect and compact stone, the routes are on a wall which is 200m long but on the 800m long north face there are still many possibilities to open new routes
Monte Pelligrino (Palermo), THE place for climbing at Palermo, roofs, vertical walls, perfect conditions for a beautiful climbing day
